THREE RIDDLES

1)

I am never lonely.

I have five friends who are always with me,

And whom I can always count on.

Four are always beside me,

And one always behind.

2. Almost everyone makes it in, but few make it out.

3. Name two things that "live" by devouring themselves.

HINTS:

1. I'm not human.

2. It has to do with age.

Answers:

1. A die (one of a pair of dice)

2. The double-digit age range (10 - 99). Few live to 100.

3. Candles and stars
